As far as I know, unicode-bidi can not implement the bidi paragraph breaking requirements of these elements. What the style layer can and should do, however, is simply implement the Unicode Bidi Algorithm re newlines, which the UBA defines to be bidi paragraph breaks. This will result in the newlines in <pre> and <textarea> serving as paragraph breaks, since the existing default white-space style of these elements, as implemented by the style layer, will leave the newlines in these elements' content. For <br>, the style layer should be able to implement it being a paragraph break via the default stylesheet settings for <br>, as they already appear in http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/rendering.html#punctuation-and-decorations: br { content: '\A'; white-space: pre; } I do realize that this comment has nothing to do with the subject of this bug (which is dir=auto), and will file a separate bug on the above if you prefer I do so. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
